<h1> ITALIAN-LEGAL-BERT:A pre-trained Transformer Language Model for Italian Law </h1> |
|
|
|
ITALIAN-LEGAL-BERT is based on <a href="https://huggingface.co/dbmdz/bert-base-italian-xxl-cased">bert-base-italian-xxl-cased</a> with additional pre-training of the Italian BERT model on Italian civil law corpora. |
|
It achieves better results than the ‘general-purpose’ Italian BERT in different domain-specific tasks. |
|
|
|
<h2>Training procedure</h2> |
|
We initialized ITALIAN-LEGAL-BERT with ITALIAN XXL BERT |
|
and pretrained for an additional 4 epochs on 3.7 GB of text from the National Jurisprudential |
|
Archive using the Huggingface PyTorch-Transformers library. We used BERT architecture |
|
with a language modeling head on top, AdamW Optimizer, initial learning rate 5e-5 (with |
|
linear learning rate decay, ends at 2.525e-9), sequence length 512, batch size 10 (imposed |
|
by GPU capacity), 8.4 million training steps, device 1*GPU V100 16GB |
